Sidearm & Sorcery Volume Two

Bryce is a family man living just north of Salt Lake City, Utah. He writes primarily action/adventure fiction in a variety of genres. He loves jazz and blues music, firearms, pulp magazines, programming, computer security topics, escape rooms, brisket & other smoked meats, high fives, kettlebells, lindy hop, two-wheeled transportation, his wife, and his kids. Not all exactly in that order. When he's not writing, he is coding web apps and managing the IT needs of a haunted hotel in West Yellowstone.

Supernatural evils lay hidden, deep in the shadows of society. Be these dangers man or beast, they will strike at unsuspecting, everyday people. What if there are no selfless wizards around when a demon steps from the alley? What if there are no supers to be found when the ancient demigod awakens? What if there is no prophesy and no chosen one to stand in the way of the dark forces? In these cases, the regular people must must courage to face the foe. The protagonists in these stories have no magic powers, but they refuse to be powerless. This collection of 17 short stories brings you new adventures and new dangers, all in modern settings.
